This week Nikki and Kate look at the “box office failure” turned cult classic Jennifer’s Body and explore what happens when the movie advertised doesn’t match up with the movie delivered. They later nonchalantly climb out the window after being refused a tampon.  See if you can find the part in the episode where Kate was trying to slyly troubleshoot zoom camera issues. It’s super inconspicuous.  Also, Kate does *not* hate Kristen Stewart. She failed to enunciate that all important d at the end of the word. Kristen Stewart is a gem and must be protected.  **We talk about sexual assault in this episode.
